Eneref examines how double-pleated honeycomb shades improve skylight performance

“You want to get as much light as possible into the house—it’s both a necessity and an opportunity. But you’ve got to be mindful. Too much sunlight can cause glare, make a room too hot, or fade your rugs. That’s why window treatments are something you always have to think about.” 

Room-Darkening Shades Optimize Skylights in New England Home

Double-pleated honeycomb skylight shades enhance natural daylight while improving comfort and efficiency. In a New England home, they reduced heat gain in summer, retained warmth in winter, and minimized glare. Integrated solar-powered controls offered convenience and energy savings. Beyond performance, the shades preserved aesthetics, proving essential in modern daylighting design for both occupant well-being and architectural impact.
